I wonder if adding a bit of saturated Urea solution to the mixture below
would help with absorption. I'm sure it would help the way the DMSO
smells.
Thanks Brooks.

The protocol consisted of diluting hydrolyzed collagen powder with
distilled water ( substituted 10 ppm CS in cases presenting with skin
abrasions), and mixing with undiluted DMSO as follows:
(1) into about 1 cup of distilled water or CS, added powdered hydrolyzed
collagen to saturation point (no more powder would go into solution)
(2) using this solution as the parent (75% by volume), mixed in DMSO
(25% by volume) and allowed to cool to room temperature.
* Candidate skin surface was prepared by light washing/rinsing,
using weak soap solution.
* Damp drying and applying, generously..... the Collagen X DMSO
solution (using care about the eyes, due to the hygroscopic nature
of DMSO).
* Allow 5 to 10 minutes for proper absorption.
* A shiny surface appearance is quite normal.... as is a slightly
sticky feel on the fingers when moved across the treated surface.
Obvious Results: Immediately, it becomes evident that the very small
wrinkles are noticeably reduced in appearance (a result of the hydrating
of the outer skin layers), as the tiny valleys appear to "fill-in" as
the entrained moisture penetrates AND softens. While the larger wrinkles
(containing the higher densities of "free-standing" lean tissue) present
a much lower degree of improvement they do enjoy a "noticeable/marked"
improvement in softness-----due, primarily, to the improved hydration.
Overall enhancement in skin softness and general pliability, presents
immediately and is evident to even the most skeptical (at least that has
been our, repeatable, experience). When this protocol is repeated twice
daily, the general improvement in reduced wrinkling effect and skin
surface pliability becomes quite evident.
Note: Due to the residual effect of the excess collagen on the skin
surface (gives a glazed appearance), a woman might desire to remove this
simply by wiping with a damp cloth---before applying make-up or just
leaving it "au natural" after the wiping.
We achieved similar results with several different suppliers' hydrolyzed
collagen product, but the most effective appeared to be the
"Instantized" variety from Beyond-a-Century. We purchased the Hydrolyzed
Collagen in the 1 lb. containers at reasonable cost from all suppliers.
It is of note that care is recommended when applying the DMSO X COLLAGEN
solution close to the eyes. Although there is no demonstrated danger in
case some material got on to the eyeball and/or the lid
...... the hygroscopic effect of even 25% DMSO could result in
sensations akin to "burning"..
Sincerely, Brooks Bradley. p. s. There is, some, evidence that entrained
collagen is "depositing" in the lean tissue fractions underlying the
skin layers. We have not employed testing that would, conclusively,
substantiate this indication. Such testing involves rather costly
endeavors ...... and we are not in the cosmetics business..... so will
not undertake such action. However, such measures might well appeal to
persons who are, commercially, active in this field.
